In this Question Line video, Jason responds to questions regarding composite profile control. The following drawing and questions were submitted through our GD&T Questions submission page: 

 

  1. Are the Datum structures in the two examples above valid for this drawing?
  2. If they are valid, wouldn’t both examples yield the same results when inspected?

 

In this video, Jason discusses a composite feature control frame controlling profile tolerance. Additional information regarding composite feature control frames can be found in this article: Composite vs Multiple Single Segment Tolerances.
